Like many people already said, flogging (food log!
) works great for me. But when I stop, I regain.
I have been losing weight slowly by eliminating more animal products from my diet. But now I think it's time to count calories again. Unlike some of the posters, I *do* keep flogging when I'm having a bad day. Then I can look back and see that maybe it wasn't so bad, after all. Maybe I only ate 2200 calories, when I thought I had been a total pig and gained three pounds. That keeps me motivated the next day.
My flog (I'm cracking up every time I type that!!!) is on paper. Websites are too much hassle for me and my pre-historic dial-up connection. I have a small journal. At the top of each page, I write the date and the number of days I've been working on it. I write down the major food groups and keep track by tally marks how many items of each group I'm eating. I also keep track of calories.
It's probably time to start again, since I'm going back to counting calories. The question is, how to maintain?
And then I feel guilty for lying to it and for eating whatever I ate. 
I do better not to focus too much on food altogether.
Get it, Mauvais!
